Fiber Craft Studio

Inspired by Rudolf Steiner's insights and teaching, we practice the traditional fiber crafts in the spirit of research and renewal. In our collaborative working, we are transforming natural fibers into useful and beautiful objects. The process of creation has powerful moral and social implications. By using only natural materials and dyes derived from plants - many of them grown in our dye garden. We seek to work in harmony with nature, and we cannot but develop of a sense of awe and wonder for nature's gifts. As we transform natural materials, imbuing them with new life, we are being transformed. Our powers of observation are enhanced, and our senses are enlivened. Our hands become more sensitive and nimble, our mind becomes focused, and we learn to listen with our heart. Through spiritual striving, the work of our hands becomes a contemplative and transformative practice, and we learn to approach all realms of life with artistic sensibility.
